receive apples every Christmas Eve. I have always been curious about why Chinese people give apples on Christmas Eve. It is not the case for foreigners.
Best answer
Chinese people pay more attention to the auspicious meaning contained in homophones. In fact, the reason why Chinese people send apples on Christmas Eve is very simple. Apple is homophonic to "ping an", and sending apples on Christmas Eve means wishing the other party peace and safety.It is a traditional interpretation of Western festivals by Chinese people. Of course, apples are not the only choice for Christmas Eve gifts. The editor will introduce them to you one by one soon.
Crystal apples:Sending apples on Christmas Eve is actually popular among Chinese college students. First, it symbolizes peace and safety, which has a good meaning. Second, it echoes "Christmas Eve" and has the word "ping". Today I recommend a customizable crystal apple. Compared with ordinary apples, they have greater commemorative value and wider collection significance.
Customized gifts:Most Chinese Christmas Eve is spent by young people. In addition to traditional gifts such as apples, there are many creative customized gifts that are also good. These customized gifts can generally be engraved or printed with photos. It is suitable for customizing holiday blessings to everyone and giving them to everyone. The surprise effect is full and the commemorative significance is also great.
Novelty gifts:Christmas Eve is a lively and interesting festival for us. It is also popular to send our blessings with creative and novel small gifts, such as storm bottles that can predict the weather and singing music lamps, which can bring warmth and touch to our friends and family on the snowy Christmas Eve.
